it was
such a nice day, getting cold was no issue, however,the last couple

of
week-ends my feet got pretty cold in the water and i know this is

just a
hint of what's to come. i have a pair of neoprene waders, so my body

stays
plenty warm, but my hands and feet are another issue. i have been

scouting
the catalogues, but thought i'd ask what ya'll like in the way of

warm
socks, and appropriate gloves for winter fishin.


Go to that general store just outside of Boone and get a liner sock
(typically silk or capilene) and wear them under a smart wool or fleece
sock.

Gloves good luck, everyone has different prefrences I use a sims
fingerless neoprene glove (avaiable from Wally, the socks are too!) or
in extreme cold I have some wool mittens with a flap that allows me to
expose the fingers to tie flies or remove a hook, then flap them back
over.
